How do you make Miroslav Philharmonik 2's strings loop?

Some of the patches like solo violin play for a few seconds while a note is held, but then the sample ends. Is there a way to get continuous sound so I can program long notes?

Which specific patch are you using? I just loaded Violin Sus 4,0 mp LP into Part 2 (assigned to midi channel 2) and pressed a single note on my usb/midi keyboard. I got tired of holding it down so, I turned on CC64 and it has been sustaining for the past 5 minutes with no end in sight.

EDIT: I turned CC64 off after 25 minutes and the solo violin sound executed its release as expected. By any chance are you trying to sustain one of the solo violin patches that doesn't sustain?

Think it was 1st Violin. Maybe it was one of the non sustaining patches. I will try what you did, thanks!

Just tried that patch... the notes still end after a couple seconds

Oh wait... does LP mean loop? I don't have LP for all instruments, just some like solo Viola and 14 Violins

I don't know what all the preset naming conventions are. That would be a good question to ask IK Support. I looked in the manuals and did an on-line search and didn't find any naming documentation.

I also went to Strings - Ensemble - Violins - Violins Sustain. I have 14 presets that start with 14 Violins Sustain in the name. Seven of them end with LP in the name. Not sure if LP is short for Loop Point or if its just coincidental. I didn't do anything special, but all of the presets with LP sustained when I held the keys down and then set CC64.

Maybe it was dumb luck that I tried the Sustain / LP presets and they worked. I assume support should know what LP means. Maybe other users can help?

Yesterday I also tried tried a Multi / KS preset, but the Sustain articulation didn't give me infinite sustain. Today I looked at 14 Violins Sustain pp LP in the edit section. With CC64 set (latched/infinite sustain) when I lowered the sustain level in envelope 1 from 100 to 0, the notes stopped and needed to be retriggered. But when I lowered it to 9.3 and brought it back up to 100, the notes were still on.

Whether or not this works the same way for you, I encourage you to ask IK Support, especially if you can't get the notes to do infinite sustain. They should be able to help.
